I just want a 10-12' cable that can push through enough power to keep my VR headset charged while I am using it sitting stationary, and I'm not sure what to even get that isn't the $70 official fiber optic one. I ain't buying one of those again. Last time I had a headset, I got it just because I figure the quality of PCVR would be improved over Virtual Desktop but it was actually worse. I'm not buying one again.

If you're talking about the Quest 2/3, I don't think Facebook gave them the ability to charge fast enough to outdo the current draw of some games.

Supposedly both are limited to around 15W charging, so no matter what cable and charger you try, the battery will still drain in a lot of situations.
